People in the west are always getting ready to live.

People in the west are always getting ready to live.
 
 
Alan Watts
 
 
Western society embraces the idea that our goal is to prepare to live life at some future time.  People’s lives are filled with meaningless monotonous tasks in order to live “someday.”  What makes us think or believe that we will ever be ready to live if we cannot give ourselves to the present moment and simply live Now?  Living continues to be something that we push away until our lives are over.  We intend to make life meaningful in the future, but in reality never even begin to truly make life meaningful in the present.
 
 
Do It Now
 
 
What future are you preparing for if the only time that exists is Now?  Beware of following a society that is slowly destroying itself.  There exists plenty of evidence that the majority that we call “normal” has no clue how to live effectively or in peace.  Make a conscious effort Right Now to stop pushing life away and embrace it with all the zest and energy that resides within the core of your being.
